Seasons Greetings Lovelies,
First of all, I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas:)
Today, I'll be cooking at home and watching movies with my family, making it a cozy Christmas.
And even though, I'll be nestling at home, I decided to fix myself up a bit with some makeup and make my lashes long and pretty by using the new Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara I recieved from Influenster.
Yep! Influenster surprised me this Christmas season with the Marc Jacobs Beauty Vox Box.
Here are some specs on this recently launched mascara from the Marc Jacobs site.
INSTANT VOLUME, EPIC LASHES
EXPERIENCE 1800% MORE VOLUME AND THE LOOK OF FALSE LASHES.THE LASH-MAXIMIZING, CURVY BRUSH PLACES THE MOST VOLUME AT THE HARD-TO-REACH CENTER LASH LINE, AND THE DEFINING TIP STYLES LASHES FOR MAJOR DRAMA. THE ULTRA-CONCENTRATED BLACK PIGMENT DELIVERS THE GREATEST VISUAL IMPACT, AND THE FLASH VOLUME COMPLEXTM CREATES INSTANT, SMUDGE-FREE LENGTH AND VOLUME IN THREE STROKES OR LESS.
VELVET NOIR MAJOR VOLUME MASCARA GIVES YOU THE THICKEST LASHES IN A BLINK.
The packaging is a bit bulky but not so much that you can't fit it in a makeup bag.
The mascara itself is heavy in formulation and it's really black.
As I was applying it, it reminded me of fiber mascara in a good way, extending, thickening and volumizing my lashes instantly.
It did clump a bit so take your time coating them and what I found useful was using my guard card to evenly coat each lash but of course a business card will do.
In the picture below, I have my lashes curled without mascara.
Then Voila! The Marc Jacobs made a huge difference:) of course not their claim of 1800% more volume but there was plenty of it.
Almost like a falsies effect.
This mascara is high end and it comes with a high end price of $26.00.
If this is a product you would like to splurge on, then it's available at www.marcjacobs.com or at Sephora or www.sephora.com.
Oh yes, if you are a Sephora beauty insider and it's your birthday you can get a mini Marc Jacobs mascara and liner as a free gift.
But you have to sign up in time for your birthday:) Yay!
Well, that's all for today and I hope you enjoyed my post and I'm always happy to introduce to you something new.
Have a Merry Christmas and I'll be back soon with more posts on The Color Wheel Gallery...
